I thank you for this, I love being a fanfiction writer and all my fellow fanfiction writing family

Why are people ashamed of writing fanfic? I just saw someone who is writing a fanfic for NanoWriMo - who has dedicated themselves to writing 50k words of fanfic this month - say that fanfic was their ‘secret shame’ on a forum entirely made up of fanfic writers. 

And you know what? That’s not at all uncommon. I can’t even count the times I’ve seen fanfic disparaged as something for teenage girls or unworthy all together and I think I’ve finally worked out why. And the reason irks me just as much as the fact that this happens. 

Fanfic is, by and large, written by women. It’s a creative voice that fills a void left in Hollywood as well as in publishing houses. Only 9% of spec scripts (for movies) sold between 2010 and 2012 were written by women. In 2010, 84% of the reviewers for the New York Review of Books were men and 83% of the books they reviewed were also by men. Female writers make up only 29% of TV staff jobs, a drop of 1.5% from last season, with things looking even bleaker for minorities, who hold only 13.7 percent of TV staff writer jobs. All of these facts add up to one thing - these days, writing is utterly dominated by middle aged, white men. They floods our televisions, our bookshelves, and our movie screens and sometimes we fall in love with the characters but maybe we don’t see the story we wanted told. So we write fic. 

But do you know what I think? I think that shame comes from being bold enough to dare to have a voice. I think we’re viewing our own perspectives as somehow less, unworthy in comparison to the ‘norm’ of ‘real’ storytelling that we see validated by being put on television and movie screens and bookstore shelves. While we might, as a culture, tolerate such daring activity amongst teenage girls, we also view it as childish, something women are meant to outgrow, something shameful to hold onto as adults. But it isn’t just fanfic we’re shaming. It’s our voices, our validity, and that makes me sick. 

So be a fanfic writer. Be the best goddamned fanfic writer you can be. Use your voice and be proud of it because it’s yours. There is nothing ‘less’ about fanfic. And there never will be. 

Reblog for a miracle to happen tonight

Keith & Krolia Modern AU

Keith is an only child who lives with his mom

he doesn’t know much about his dad; his mom refuses to give any concrete answers save he loved you very much but now he’s not here

he used to care a lot when he was younger

on father’s day when all the kids would make glittery cards for their dads, keith would come home empty handed

when he learned about families, he was taught the nuclear family code; how every normal family has a mom and a dad and a baby and they all live in a big house with their cats and dogs

keith came home crying that day because he didn’t have a dad or a big house or a cat or a dog

his mom marched her way to the school the next day and had a long talk with the principal about the wrong messages that are are being delivered to the children

you don’t need to abide by the nuclear code to be considered normal

a normal family can have two moms or two dads, or no parents and only grandparents; or siblings/caretakers/guardians or just a single mom or dad

there is no rulebook that says there needs to be a mom and a dad in order for the child to be happy

the principal argued back, stating the child’s mental well being which pissed krolia off

keith ended up changing schools in the middle of the semester

since it’s just the two of them, they live in a small, but cozy, apartment

he loves the view of the setting sun

the entire flat would be bathed in a deep golden light

during summers, they pull out a mattress and sleep in the living room since their rooms become really stuffy

the fan will be on full blast but it’s no use; so they will have the windows open

they can hear the cars zooming past and the occasional siren

keith is more of a sportman

after school, he will drop in only to chug down a cold water bottle before he dashes out to play with his friends

loves playing basketball

he prefers doing his homework when his mom is home

krolia comes home by 5 / 6 pm max

she hates making dinner

when she comes home, she just wants to sit back and relax

keith’s teenage years were a nightmare for her since that boy ate like a vacuum cleaner

he would inhale rather than properly chew his food

she loves summers as she can just walk around in her shorts and tank tops

she loathes winters because of all the layers she has to wear

they love watching horror films together

their halloween preparations begin as early as september

they don’t care much for thanksgiving; it’s all about the scares and thrills for them

they will hit all the stores and buy huge bulks of various chocolates, treats and flavored popcorn

but they don’t share any of it with the trick-or-treaters; they hoard it for themselves

keith loved buttered popcorn for the longest time until he switched over to chex mix

it has everything

kroila loves spiced popcorn

every friday and saturday night, they will cuddle together munching on their goodies as they go on movie marathons

if either of them scream loudly and hide behind the other, they don’t say a word about it the next day

krolia is scared of all kinds of insects while keith is terrified of clowns

he fucking hates pennywise with a passion

he’s not scared to admit, he had to sleep with his mom for a whole week after he watched It

they love to play pranks on each other

they try to up the scales with each prank

krolia purposely put in a red sock in the washer making all of keith’s clothes turn pink

he was teased about it for about a month

keith bought a bunch of rubber spiders, threw them on his mom’s bedroom floor when she was asleep

she woke up to the sound of skittering and screamed at the top of her lungs seeing all the “spiders”

keith recorded the whole thing and never let her live it down

keith loves going on hikes even though his mom doesn’t want him to go on his own

there’s no telling who might be out there

he still goes and one day he’s actually followed by a creepy, looking guy

he manages to get away but when he comes home, he’s a mess

krolia yells at him a lot that day

from then on, all hiking adventures are saved for the weekends and during the day time

keith hates all the science

he likes his social studies class more

he only manages to pass his science classes because his mom is super smart and is able to dumb everything down for him

they like to cook together

tacos, enchiladas, pizzas (anything that can be assembled really)

they don’t have the patience for long duration meals especially during school days

during summer times, they like to experiment a lot

krolia loves to bbq

keith always brags about his mom making some of THE BEST bbq foods ever

wings, steaks, kebabs etc. she’s a PRO

keith loves to make popsicles, smoothies and milkshakes

they both love waffles over pancakes

BACON and turkey sausages are a MUST for them

saturday mornings, they laze around in bed

keith would bring their breakfast and they will slowly re-energize

they spend at least an hour just finishing up their meals and watching cartoons

if he’s really lazy, he’ll just bring bowls of cereal (honey bunches of oats with crispy almonds)

if he’s feeling a bit fancy, he’ll make scrambled eggs, toast (buttered for him not his mom), some fruit (they both split a banana and share the grapes and strawberries) and have a side of bacon (he can never get the sausages right)

sundays, they have to get their asses in gear and get all the chores done

usually means laundry, sweeping, cleaning out the bathroom etc

keith takes the longest showers

he would spend hours pampering himself with all the scented shampoos and conditioners

kroila had to learn the hard way to get her ass out of bed and into the bathroom before he did

on her really bad days, kroila loves to take bubble baths so that she can de-stress

she’ll light up the candles, use her special bottles and crack open her favorite romance novel and playing calming music

keith knows not to disturb her during this time

kroila hates grocery shopping

she never knows what to get

once she’s in there she feels like a black hole as she wants everything

once she went out to get a tub of ice cream and brought home some yuccas instead

so keith ends up going along with her much to his chagrin

she’s okay with all other forms of shopping though since she only gets what she needs

they have a monthly ritual where they alternate between picking out a new restaurant to visit

keith loved the last caribbean place they visited a lot

he earned a fond taste of spicy foods while kroila needs things to be on the sweet and sour side

keith’s mom works at a hardware store and is very knowledgeable about fixing things

she would often be called on by people in the building for help

she’s able to make decent money this way but she chooses not to

she’s often invited by men who are lusting after her

once, a man followed kroila home and tried to force his way in

keith, who was about 6 at the time, was frightened but kroila was able to fight the man off with no problem

she called the police and filed an official complaint on him just to be safe

even though he was scared, keith had a baseball bat in hand, ready to strike in case his mom needed help

kroila got teary eyed and after locking the door shut, hugged her boy really tight

they both cried and huddled together that night

kroila tried teaching keith the basics on how to defend himself but he kept holding himself back whenever she urged him to attack her

she enrolled him to several karate and martial arts classes

keith’s favorite show at the time was power rangers

he would imitate the fight sequences the rangers performed

he would get yelled at every time he broke a vase / lamp

when he was 11, he asked his mom if she ever wanted to get married again or have a boyfriend or something

she didn’t; she was perfectly happy with what she has with keith right now and truthfully, doesn’t think she can make time for a relationship

she just doesn’t feel attracted to people that way anymore

keith isn’t entirely sure what she meant by that but he didn’t push it since he was happy with the answer he got
